please, have you a answer for this Problem, see Picture, a little confused for me, i mean ID15A1 are right and not was ASRock or ubu...

Open your BIOS in MMTool.

This picture is all manufacturers. On my Asus Z87-Plus (i217-V)
DavID in OROM 1503, in OS Win7 - 15b3. But it is not critical and is not a problem.
In UBU setting OROM taken from data CSMCORE.

Edit:
If we look the rules of filling DevID, the manufacturers are wrong. In any case, everything works without problems.

...works without Problems, yes ~99%, when i set Settings default, no Problem, when set secure boot, Default Bios or modbios with ubu, Bios can not connect to asrock Server (search to new Bios), have here (Forum) a modbios P2.30 with ID15A1 and have no Problem btw. this Error notification, had already want to ask you earlier to this Erratum, but forgotten.

@ morpheus67
You use CSM or UEFI mode?

Edit:
If you enable Secure Boot, then you use UEFI mode. In the UEFI mode, the OROM are not used. Then your problem is in the file EFI LAN.
What is your version of EFI LAN?
Which version UBU you used for modifying?

I have a question. Necessarily it is necessary to update module HiiDataBase from AMD RAID?
It rarely is, in BIOS and I think that it is better to leave as is.

Hi

I've been using the UBU tool for a while and just been lurking these forums.

Not sure if it's been reported already but I got a bug with the UBU 1.29 beta 1

It won't update the LAN EFI rom. Is working in UBU 1.28 beta 6

I'm using Windows 10 and the bios is for ASUS Maximus VII Ranger

Thanks for a great product :)

I know this problem. The problem will be fixed in the next release.
But there is a serious problem.
We can not understand the work EFI LAN driver version 0.0.07 on chips 82579/i217/i218. If the version 0.0.07 is not working, it is necessary to return the version 6.6.04. But so far no one checked.
On my motherboard Asus Z87-Plus it looks like this:

EFI Intel LAN UNDI Driver v0.0.07

EFI Intel LAN UNDI Driver v6.6.04

But the more I did not check.

Well honestly I don't know much about what that does. I kinda just update it because the option is there :)

What kind of tests can be done to help?

My bios shows the same as yours with the 0.0.07 . Only the PCI Device Id is different.

In short, my suggestion is to keep it and update it when it is found. But here is the long story. As you can read here or here or EDK2 implementation, the file has nothing to do with AMD or RAID. If AMD needs to add a RAID menu to the UEFI setup screen, if should probably use handlers like EFI_HII_DATABASE_NOTIFY_ADD_PACK and EFI_HII_DATABASE_NEW_PACK. Why it doesn't do that, I don't know. Maybe the implementation of UEFI at that time was too buggy or the results were not predictable on all platforms. You can see that they also added SCSIBus and SCSIDisk, which normally should be compiled by OEMs. So keep all the files that AMD provided and update them when found. As you have observed, HiiDatabase is rarely found and it is even marked as optional by AMD.

The trick part is that Intel platforms also have Hiidatabase, SCSIBus, SCSIDisk - so you must be careful when you update them. I have added the known GUIDs to Extractor, but I can't say for sure which are the good ones. The safest bet is to search for AMD RAIDx64, it always has the same GUID C468B382-4550-4909-AD57-2496141B3F4A, so only in this situation you can update the other 3 EFI drivers. This is what I did in Extractor to remove the false positive for both AMD and Intel, as I noticed that Hiidatabase, SCSIBus, SCSIDisk have little to do with Intel or AMD.

In the next version UBU will be able to choose the version EFI Intel LAN

Edit:
Files EFI Intel PRO/1000 LAN UNDI v6.7.xx and 6.8.xx support only i210/i211, and not support 82579/i217/i218 network chips
New file EFI Intel Gigabit LAN UNDI v0.0.07 support 82579/i217/i218, but why that not support i210/i211 chips
Version EFI Intel PRO/1000 LAN UNDI v6.6.04 - It supports all the chips.

Hi SoniX,

I have been using the UBU tool for quite a while now and I have WDS and use PXE to install my OS's on my Desktop machines.

Recently have done a lot of testing into why my Gigabyte boards, some of them installed in UEFI mode and some in Legacy mode. I seemed that the Z97 modded ones with Atheros would boot from UEFI fine but the Z87 modded ones with Intel would not, only Legacy would work.

Your very latest UBU v1.29 Beta1 fix (Beta Version) however fixed all that by not updating the EFI part of the Intel code, going back over some of the previous versions, yes both the v0.0.07 and v6.8 definitely did not work for i210/i217 board, did not think to try any earlier, just the built in EFI Intel PRO/1000 UNDI - 5.1.00 worked the best so far.

Anyway, sounds like all the above reflects the same as what you have noted, keep up the great work :)

I have this test machine with this BIOS: https://downloadcenter.intel.com/downloa...ng%2FBL0160.BIO

The model and brand of the mainboard is: Intel DH67BL. I tried using "UBU_v1_28_BETA_2" and it does detect it properly and I can update the BIOS components inside. In the OP of the UBU tool it says that it CANNOT be used for Intel mainboard BIOSes. Why is it working with this BIOS then? It does say it's an AMI Aptio 4.

Mainboard: Asus MAXIMUS X Code , CPU: Intel Core i7-8700K, Disks: Samsung 970 EVO 500GB SSD + Samsung 850 EVO 500GB SSD + Samsung SATA3 1TB HDD, Graphics: Intel Gigabyte GTX 1080 Ti, RAM: 2x8GB G.Skill Trident Z (F4-3200C14D-16GTZKW), OS: Windows 10 Enterprise x64

BIOSes from Intel, Insyde and Phoenix not supported. Since they are not AMI Aptio

Hi Fernando, I just tried the new tool UBU v1.29 (official version) and unfortunately for GA-Z87X-OC Force BIOS F10 which has both Intel i210 and i217 that Intel EFI LAN PRO/1000 UNDI v6.6.04 does not work, so in this instance the skip updating EFI UNDI is very useful, not sure if you can put better warning in this section of the tool, but might be useful for those of us with dual Intel LAN boards.

Thanks again )))

Ah ok. So in that case, the when I upload the file to UBU and it detects it, that is just an erroneous result?
